HARD:LINE International Film Festival

Regensburg, Germany


HARD:LINE International Film Festival aims to present the various faces of extreme cinema.

The question as to what is meant by the term “extreme” can be understood by looking at the content of our wide selection of fantastic films. “Extreme” is often defined by an explicit splatter aesthetic but it can also be represented by unusual story-telling methods or an exotic visual language. Thus, we are meticulously selecting such examples that could be important in the future of the genre. We have not set any boundaries in our search and whether a film is a pearl of the independent scene, fun splatter or no-brainer, H:LIFF loves special films!

HARD:LINE International Film Festival is no warehouse festival where the priority is to show as many films as possible but rather concentrates on presenting a few glowing examples of everything that extreme film can be.

Sunscreen Film Festival

St. Petersburg, United States


Sunscreen is known for its friendly atmosphere in a sun-kissed waterfront setting in the arts-centric city of St. Petersburg, FL. For 18 years the festival has screened top-notch indie films, provided our filmmakers with quality workshops and panels packed with Hollywood talent, hosted great parties, and has been the top film festival in the St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Tampa, Florida area. Sunscreen is consistently ranked among the top 100 reviewed film fests on Film Freeway out of over 9,000 festivals.

The Sunscreen Film Festival was one of 23 festivals sponsored by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences (the Oscars) in 2013-2014, named one of the top 25 “coolest’ film festivals by MovieMaker Magazine and Best Film Festival in the Tampa Bay Area by Tampa Bay Magazine.

The Sunscreen Film Festival is organized and presented by the Sunscreen Film Society., a nonprofit 501(c)(3) charity dedicated to education, economic development, informing the public about the art of visual storytelling, enhancing opportunities for local filmmakers to develop their craft and art, and increasing the public’s awareness and support of local filmmaking as a cultural and economic asset.

The Sunscreen Film Festival has grown from its first festival in a local art gallery in 2006 to an internationally recognized event in St. Petersburg, FL and Los Angeles, CA. The festival has become known for its commitment to diversity, taking chances on creative, edgy films; and being a filmmakers' film festival. Celebrating diversity is a core value of the city and the festival seeks each year to showcase that value.

One aspect that makes Sunscreen unique is that our celebrities and special guests participate in workshops, classes, or other events supporting the festival’s mission. Everyone that attends Sunscreen is accessible and easy to interact with. Many filmmakers love the collegial atmosphere during the festival and appreciate the chance to learn from one another. Sunscreen provides around a dozen workshops during the festival each year.

Our goal is to encourage the creation, production, and exhibition of creative, independent film in Florida through our educational programs and public screenings, thereby increasing awareness and support of local filmmaking as a cultural and economic asset.

Diversity Statement: Sunscreen Film Festival

At the Sunscreen Film Festival, we believe that diversity is essential to the vitality and creativity of the film industry. We are committed to fostering an inclusive and equitable environment where filmmakers from all backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences can showcase their unique voices and stories.

Our festival celebrates the richness of human diversity by embracing filmmakers of diverse races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, religions, abilities, and socio-economic backgrounds. We strive to create a platform that reflects the world we live in and presents a diverse range of narratives and perspectives to our audience.

We are dedicated to promoting equal opportunities and breaking down barriers for underrepresented voices within the film industry. We actively seek out and support filmmakers who have traditionally been marginalized or underrepresented, including but not limited to women, people of color, members of the LGBTQ+ community, individuals with disabilities, and those from different cultural and socio-economic backgrounds.

To ensure a fair and inclusive selection process, we are committed to assembling a diverse panel of judges and industry professionals who understand the importance of representation. We continuously strive to eliminate any biases that may exist in the evaluation and selection of films, giving equal consideration to all entries based solely on their artistic merits and storytelling qualities.

In addition to our programming, we are dedicated to providing opportunities for networking, mentorship, and professional development to filmmakers from underrepresented communities. We actively collaborate with organizations and initiatives that share our commitment to diversity and inclusion, working together to create a more inclusive film industry.

We invite filmmakers, industry professionals, and film enthusiasts alike to join us in our mission to champion diversity, foster inclusion, and promote meaningful dialogue through the power of cinema. Together, we can create an environment where all voices are heard, respected, and celebrated.

Join us at the Sunscreen Film Festival, where diversity is at the heart of our programming and the driving force behind our commitment to shaping a more inclusive film industry.

The International Summer Film Festival 2024 is underway and promises to be an unparalleled cinematic experience. This high-quality event, celebrating the best of the international short film world, has become a cornerstone of Montevideo's summer. Organized with passion and dedication by Uruguay Campus Film, the festival was born in 2022 with the aim of strengthening exhibition spaces for short films and promoting exchanges among national filmmakers.

This summer 2024, we are excited to offer an even more thrilling edition. After two successful previous editions, where we have already established ourselves as an international festival, we continue our commitment to bring the best of cinema to Montevideo and beyond.

We recognize that Uruguay's audiovisual scene continues to capture the attention of both locals and visitors, creating a constant demand for venues where filmmakers can share their creations with new audiences, and where these audiences can immerse themselves in the richness of national cinema in all its forms.

In this third edition of the Summer Film Festival, we have gone a step further. We have expanded our horizons by introducing a category dedicated to international short films. This will allow us to explore an even broader and more diverse cinematography, providing our audience with a rich and enriching cinematic experience.

Furthermore, we will continue to offer workshops and talks, where filmmakers will share their knowledge and experiences. Our mission is to create a relaxed learning space where conversations flow freely between filmmakers and audiences, allowing everyone to immerse themselves in the magical world of cinema.

The "Cinema in the Neighborhood" section will remain a highlight of the festival, connecting cinematic art with the local community through outdoor screenings in unusual and exciting locations.

The Summer Film Festival is a celebration of cinematic culture and a platform for local and international talent. It represents the culmination of over a decade of effort and dedication by Uruguay Campus Film and has its roots in previous events such as Cinema Day, Experimental Cinema, and UCF Shows Itself.

With each new edition, our festival advances toward more exciting horizons, offering a unique experience to film enthusiasts and those seeking to explore the richness of the seventh art. So, get ready for a summer in 2024 filled with captivating stories, enriching cinematic experiences, and unforgettable moments at the International Summer Film Festival. We welcome you to a summer of cinema like no other!
